(Clearwisdom.net) In a dream, I was shown on some level what happens when I flirt or have an unrighteous mind when talking with members of the opposite gender. The sequence of events described below occurred in the dream within a matter of seconds.

As I engaged in a conversation with a man, my thoughts weren't clear or righteous, so supernormal powers that resulted from karma took control. It was like the description in "Practicing Evil Cultivation" in Lecture Five of Zhuan Falun. Master says,

"In comparison with everyday people, however, he can restrain them because karma is also a form of energy. When its density becomes very high, it can also strengthen the supernormal abilities in one's body and produce such an effect."

First, I looked at the other person in an overly-friendly or mischievous and teasing kind of way. Supernormal powers that looked like laser beams immediately shot out from my eyes and started to wrap around the other person's head, interfering with his main consciousness, which was already weak since he wasn't a practitioner, and made his thinking unclear. The area around his head literally became foggy and his main consciousness struggled to regain control, without success.

As soon as I opened my mouth and started to speak, supernormal powers shot out from my mouth and tongue, taking the form of another laser beam, but looking more like a lizard's tongue as it reached out and attached to the other person's face and mouth. These supernormal powers also worked to control his thoughts and words, making him say things that I would like, in order to satisfy my selfish desires and attachments.

Then, supernormal powers shot out from my breasts, my pelvic region, and other pores of my body, continuing to strengthen my karma's control over him and trying to increase his desire to be with me. His communication towards me, even though it was controlled by my karma, created new karma on his body, thereby literally feeding my karma.

The karma on my body started to take on a life and shape of its own. The karma over my eyes started to look like the eyes of a monster and both of our bodies became increasingly enveloped in dark substances. The black matter tried to strengthen itself, locking us into a negative cycle.

Prior to the dream, I didn't consciously realize the expressions from my eyes were originating from a flirtatious and seductive mindset seeking to satisfy emotional desires. It's like the attachment of jealousy described in Lecture Seven of Zhuan Falun, "It is so strong that it has become natural and one does not even feel it."

My unconscious behavior developed from desires of lust, wanting attention and sentimental affection, and also fear, specifically of being hurt by men and of death. The fear had turned into an unconscious hatred and vengeful aspect of self. I was unconsciously using seduction or "innocent flirting" as a way to control and harm men, and satisfy my selfish fear and sense of self-protection.

My understanding of deceptive behavior originating from fear and control is that they are elements of the Communist specter.

Master states in "Fa Teaching at the 2007 New York Fa Conference,"

"The CCP knows that Falun Gong teaches Zhen, Shan, Ren and teaches people to be good, so it in turn teaches people to be bad, especially in terms of relationships with members of the opposite sex."

Furthermore, I had a buried notion that subtle flirting was "not that bad" since no physical contact was involved. I thought I was merely joking and having fun.

The first sentence of Lecture One in Zhuan Falun, Master states,

"Throughout the entire course of my lectures on the Fa and cultivation practice, I have been responsible to society and practitioners."

Through the dream I finally came to realize that my casual behavior was the exact opposite of virtuous and responsible conduct. I was visually shown how flirting literally pushes sentient beings down and is an aspect of killing. Dafa disciples must act to save all sentient beings. Even when unconsciously controlling the other person with my karma's supernormal abilities, I was ruining that sentient being and myself, and it occurred in the course of a single thought. I'm supposed to save sentient beings, but what was I doing by being flirtatious?

Flirtatious and subtly seductive forms of behavior are prevalent in today's society, particularly in the media. I had developed very ingrained notions and distracting thoughts about sentimental relationships between men and women from movies, books, and television. As a child, I realized I could visualize scenes from books or replay scenes from movies in my head, thus reinforcing the negative elements even further.

Master further states in "Fa Teaching at the 2007 New York Fa Conference,"

"Do you want to become depraved along with society, along with the evil CCP? Isn't this a grave matter? Looking at things from this point of view, are the people in mainland China still in a human state? Isn't it serious?! Dafa disciples are to intercept and put a stop to the world's descent! It's about not letting mankind slide downward, so why is it that you yourself for such a long time now haven't managed to step out of that? You absolutely must pay attention to this!

Dafa disciples should not, under any circumstance, have any further problems in this regard. I don't want to see you make these kinds of mistakes. The boy and girl students in the performing arts troupe normally aren't allowed to just casually intermingle. Also, because they are so young, they are strictly forbidden from dating. Other Dafa disciples need to pay attention to these same issues."
